Description The Clements Minivac Portable High Suction Pump is a compact, portable unit designed for ease of operation and to ensure complete mobility for patients who have on-going suction demands outside the medical facility.

Battery Charging Charging the internal battery occurs when the mains power battery charger is connected. Mains power connected and battery charging is indicated by a green LED.

Auxiliary Power Lead Minivac can be equipped with an auxiliary power lead that is designed to accept power from a 12volt max 6 amp supply such as a car cigarette lighter.

Simple Operation Minivac can be plugged into a mains power supply outlet and run at any time. Minivac can also be run without the mains power supply connected until the red Low Battery light illuminates, indicating that minimum 5 minutes of operating time remains.

IMPORTANT The Minivac Portable High Suction Pump is designed for short term use only. It is not intended for use in operating theatres or where the pump is required to run for long periods. WARNING Always reduce vacuum strength for neonatal and paediatric purposes.

Minivac can be powered by the 240 V power pack, 12V auxiliary power supply, or the internal battery. Mains Power Connect the unit to the mains power supply and switch the power on at the mains supply outlet. 12 Volt Auxiliary Power (Optional SUC81007) Connect the auxiliary power cable to the socket . Connect the plug to a suitable 12 volt 6 amp vehicle cigarette lighter socket. Battery Powered Check that the red Low Battery LED on the Control Panel is off. If the Low Battery Indicator glows red then refer to the Charging the Internal Battery section on page 8.

Press the black Power Switch down into the on position; the motor will run. 3 Occlude (block) the Suction Tubing and adjust the Vacuum Controller by turning the knob to obtain the required vacuum level, as indicated on the Vacuum Gauge. 4 Check that there is no loss of vacuum in the Suction Tubing and fittings. 5 Check the Collection Jar to ensure that suction is being applied correctly. Please Note: 2

Although the Collection Jars are fitted with an Overflow Cut Off Valve, the fluid levels should be monitored to prevent spillover into the pump unit.

CLEMENTS Charging the Internal Battery There is an external power pack for the Minivac portable high suction pump. When the internal battery charge is low an electronic monitor will activate the red Low Battery Indicator. The pump may be run for a further 5 minutes after the LED is illuminated. Continuing to run the pump beyond this point, risks causing permanent damage to the battery. When the power pack is connected the internal charger automatically charges the battery from the mains power supply. 1. Connect the unit to the mains power supply and switch the power on at the mains supply outlet. The green Led is on. 2. Maintain the mains power supply to the unit until the Low Battery Indicator goes out. If the battery was fully depleted, charging should take 4 - 6 hours. 3. During this time the pump can be run. The electronic charger will continue to charge the internal battery from the mains power supply even though the pump is running 4. When the battery is fully charged the Low Battery Indicator will extinguish. The unit is now ready for use with battery power. 5. When the suction unit is connected via its auxiliary socket to a vehicle 12VDC power source, the internal battery is not charged unless the vehicle battery is being charged. This is to minimise the drain on the vehicle battery. Minivac may be placed on charge at any time to restore its battery to fully charged condition. It is not necessary to wait until the Low Battery LED is lit before recharging.

Maintenance After Each Operation 1.

To empty reusable collection jar detach tubing from pump side. Remove the jar and empty out aspirated fluid. Push Down Here

Lift Edge Here

Step 1

Lift Edge Here

Lift Edge Here

Step 2

Rinse and clean the collection jar as recommended by your hospital and refer to the label of the jar. When replacing the bung, make sure you connect all tubing correctly and firmly. 2.

If using the Disposable Jar system remove tubing and dispose of jar and contents according to local area health requirements.

3.

The blue bacterial filter is an important device to help protect the pump from moisture and bacteria taken from patient airways and MUST be fitted to the pump when using the reusable jar system. Clements recommend that the filter be changed each time the unit is used on infectious patients, or when filter media is damp or discoloured.

4.

The pump requires no maintenance by staff. Should the unit fail to function refer to the Troubleshooting section on page 13 or return it to the nearest Clements distributor or hospital engineer for checking.

5.

To clean the pump body, use a mild disinfectant on a damp cloth and wipe over. NEVER use an abrasive cleaning agent, as this will scratch the metal housing .

Maintenance

CLEMENTS

Troubleshooting 1.

The Pump Fails To Operate

• If attempting to run from mains power supply: ♦ Check that the mains power supply lead is firmly connected and that the power is on at the mains power supply outlet. Confirm that the green LED is on. • If attempting to run from the internal battery, check the Low Battery Indicator on the Control Panel. If it is on (red) refer to the Charging the Internal Battery section on page 8. • Check that the motor circuit breaker has not tripped. The motor circuit breaker is located on the side panel. Press the small red button to reset the circuit breaker. • Ensure that the Vacuum Gauge on the Control Panel indicates zero. If not, release vacuum.

2.

Pump Running But No Vacuum

• Check that all fittings are connected tightly. • Turn the Vacuum Controller knob on the Control Panel and watch the indicator on the Vacuum Gauge. • Ensure that all medical Suction Tubing is in good condition and not old and cracked. • Check the type of handpiece in use as some handpieces require finger occlusion to assist suction.

If the pump fails to work and you are unsure why, please contact your service department or return unit to your distributor.
